Actually, I’m not currently watching this, but my sister and I
watched the special features the other night.  I can’t believe
Matt Damon got some training in stunt driving!  I’m so
jealous.  They said he was good.  (He said he blew the clutch
out on one Mercedes because he drove it so hard.)  The main stunt
driver/trainer said that driving is instinctive…”you either have it
or you don’t.”  Shelly laughed at me because I was bouncing in my
seat saying, “See!!! That could be me!  I’ve got to
go to Hollywood!”    But Dad didn’t even bat an eyelash
when I announced my career goals.  Could it be that the issue at hand
(boys was the current topic, I think) was a bigger deal?  I
think he just isn’t taking me seriously.  “Big mistake. 
Big.  Huge.”

I’m tellin’ you people, I could so be a stunt driver…

On a more eternal note, God’s been doing a lot these last couple of
weeks.  I’m so grateful for the friends (and family) that have
been there to encourage and motivate me.  I got some things
accomplished that might have seemed minor to some, but were huge to
me.  (Things tend to get that way when they’ve been on your list
since July.) 

God really has been good.  But He’s also been tough.  I keep
reminding myself, God doesn’t want me to be happy so much as He wants
me to be holy.

  2. yeah, holy, happy, when God’s involved, they pretty much come together. Actually i guess i take that back, it’s not really happiness, but…joy…peace. That’s better than happiness. =)

  3. (I’m not sure if that was a vote of confidence or a statement of fear based on having been in my car many times…but, she keeps coming back for more. *grin*)

  4. Driving with you wasn’t scarry, when it was a clear day, but, it was “interesting” driving through sheets of rain.  I hate driving through rain so even if my heart was in the throat, I’ll let you do it anyday.
